I had a minor car accident last Monday whilst looking at my satnav I mounted the kerb and damaged a wheel. There was no one else involved. The police turned up and breathalysed me and I was arrested and taken to the station as I failed the test. I was then retested at the station and failed with a 44 on the breath test. I had been told that if I blew under 40 then there would be no charge. I now face a court case in January for this offense. My stupidity, I know, but I had only drunk a couple of pints of Stella and thought that would be ok. Anyway, I am wondering what length of ban I am looking at because in 2016 I was banned for 12 months after testing positive for cannabis just over the legal amount. I received a DG10, no penalty points and a £200 fine along with the 12 month ban. Do you think the DG10 will go against me on this new conviction?
